Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Captive Prince in Books
Jan 6, 2021
3.75 stars.
I was quickly pulled into this story. It was a little strange for me to start with but the more I read, the more I got into it. I have to admit though, that I was waiting for something to happen between our Princes...and it never really did...which means I need to read the next one to see if anything will. As well as catching up with all the royal/political stuff that's going on right now.
Will get the second book in the morning.

This kept me guessing from the first page. We don't figure out what she's doing at the police station for quite a few pages and it just goes from there. It was very intriguing. I can't say too much without giving the story away.
I liked the budding romance between Liva--strange name, so I had to mentally change it to Livia all the time--and Jaime but I would have loved them to finish what they started about 80% in. It'd been building for so long!! Nevertheless, I really liked this book.

Hmm...well, maybe it was the style of writing but I found it quite hard to get into.
Add in a strange romance in which nothing romantic really happened until right at the end <i>and</i> we never really learned why he started following her in the first place.
Then add in the fact that it was 341 pages long and nothing <i>really</i> happened until the last 100 pages or so, though it got it exciting around then, and it was good but not great in my opinion

Whimsical
Reminiscent of Childhood
Not My Favorite
This is an adorable tale about two young sisters and their father moving into a new home. This place is a bit of a fixer upper but the whimsical and magical little house makes the whole place seem alive. The whole film is very memorable of a childhood filled with adventures through the woods and dreams of meeting strange new creatures. Although not one of my favorites of the Studio Ghibli films it still holds it own within the collection.

SO many plot holes in this one and characters making idiotic decisions. A family dynamic and a strange backstory to make is care (maybe) about the villians? Willis and Murray do the best they can but this movie be is so B it makes Lifetime movies look like Oscar bait. And can we talk about the constant tying up, get loose or untie, get tied up again? Does the writer have a rope fetish? Will watch anything with Bruce Willis in it, but this was tough at times.
